If you’re visiting Costa del Sol and looking for a great place to play tennis without spending a fortune, Torremolinos is the spot for you! It’s super close to the airport, way less fancy than Marbella, but still a fantastic place to stay. And the best part? You can play tennis for just 5 euros per hour on the municipal courts!

Okay, it’s not exactly Roland Garros level, but come on – 5 euros! That’s unbeatable. Plus, these are the only courts on the coast where you can play indoors in case of rain (which, to be fair, doesn’t happen often here).
Court Options:
- Outdoor courts – hard surface
- Indoor courts – a mix of sand and grass
The courts aren’t in perfect shape, but trust me, that doesn’t take away from the fun. If you just want to hit some balls without breaking the bank, this is the place.
How to Book a Court:
To reserve a court, you need to register on the Torremolinos town hall website. Then follow these steps:
- Click Reserva de espacios
- Select Ayto Torremolinos-Delegación de Deportes
- Choose the court you want – easy!
Where to Stay in Torremolinos:
If you want to stay close to the courts, the nearest hotel is AluaSoul Costa Málaga. But honestly, I’d recommend Cervantes – it’s where most athletes stay, and it’s the perfect balance between city and beach life. If you prefer a quieter option that’s still well-located, go for Fénix Torremolinos.
Want to stay right on the beach? Check out these options:
- Meliá Costa del Sol
- RIU Costa del Sol
- The historic Pez Espada
Torremolinos might not have the luxury of Marbella, but if you’re looking for affordable tennis, easy access, and a fun vibe, it’s a no-brainer. Grab your racket and enjoy!
